Fieldwork is an essential element of geography, and is an area where many teachers feel a little apprehensive. But this is nervousness that needs to be overcome, because the collection, collation and analysis of data is a central element of geography and geographic information systems, and are vital skills that lead to genuine employment pathways.
This session will introduce approaches to both fieldwork, and how students can be exposed to some initial GIS skills that will help them to understand how we can use spatial data to solve real world problems. We will start local, by looking at fieldwork that can be undertaken in your school, and how we can use free GIS tools like Felt.com to build skills in an engaging (and non-threatening way)!
Come along on Saturday May 2 2026 to improve your skills as a teacher of geography! Location to be advised, but morning tea will be provided!
Free for GHTANT members, $15 for non members. Consider joining if you aren't a member!
